In his first interview since being kicked out of the US, FIFA referee Omar Artan tells’s the NYT’s Matt Bigg that the biggest dream of his professional life has been shattered. The World Cup ref was questioned for 11 hours, held in a cell and then dumped on a plane.

The fact FIFA isn’t making a fuss about this shows how corrupt they are to the US.
But also FIFA could just assign a ref that was supposed to do a match in Canada or Mexico to the US match and let Omar ref the Canada/Mexico match. For Omar’s sake.
